Leuden affect / luden affect
Hi. I am doing the H&P portion of a dictation and it states that the "Leuden affect is appropriate". Has anyone ever heard of this? Leuden or Luden. Thanks for the help!!

bleeding heart
Well I DID have bleeding with my ectopic pregnancy in August, so it is possible.
An early ultrasound at the hospital was incorrectly read at the hospital as intrauterine, but when my OB/GYN did another ultrasound, it was ectopic.
Typical bleeding heart everybody is a victim mentality, except of course...
those who are smart enough to not get pregnant at 14, finish school, work hard, and pay for and provide for themselves. Then they are villified by YOU for not wanting to just give it all away to those who have NOT made good choices for themselves in this infinite land of opportunity that we live in, the same country where people around the world are knocking on the doors to get into, and HAVE come here and taken advantage of the opportunity here. Opportunity doesn't mean it's handed to you. Sick, young, old, down on luck, or having a rough spell is one thing, but a lifetime of mooching is something else. There IS a difference. But that shades of gray world you live in doesn't allow you to see with any clarity.
sorry, hysterectomy
im tired
hysterectomy
I had a hysterectomy when I was 40 and it took a couple of months to get back into the groove. I am on Premarin and swear by it. It is a major operation and you definitely do not need to rush your body's recovery. Everybody is different. Hang in there.
hysterectomy
You just incurred a trauma to your body - surgery and anesthesia. Of course you are tired - and you should be sleeping. That's your body way of helping you heal.
As someone with the experience of 2 major surgeries and 3 minors, I can tell you that it takes 1 week to get the anesthetic effect worn off your body. If they had to take you really deep for awhile, it might take 10 days.
Be patient - you are human, not the Bionic Woman - and kind to yourself. Listen to what your body is telling you.
I had a hysterectomy at 26
I have never once regretted my decision to have my hysterectomy. I recovered fairly quickly, partly because I was 26. I also had a TVH with LSO and then about 5 years later had the RSO. I know that TVH is much easier and quicker to recover from than a TAH. I have to take HRT to control my hot flushes twice a day or they are so out of control I can't stand it. The hot flushes are really my only complaint. I was so miserable before my hysterectomy and can hardly believe how much better I feel now.
Hysterectomy
I have never had a C-section, but had a laparoscopic hysterectomy. Felt great and could have gone back to work after one week. That is how great I felt, but I was working for a clinic and had 8 weeks sick time built up and was thinking of leaving (did not want to lose it))and my doctor was gracious enough to give me my 8 weeks off. I loved it!! It was July and so basically my whole summer was off. Cannot beat that!!!
These knee jerk bleeding heart liberals could not take responsibility for their
actions if it hit them in the face as it did with Mrs. Twitty. The Arubans are sick and tired of her and frankly so am I. Wash the makeup off your face, take off the false eyelashes and go grieve for your daughter.
Not unless it was emergency surgery for bleeding, perforation, etc. Food would contaminate the

I'm 46, had a hysterectomy 5-1/2 years ago but still
have my ovaries. Don't think I've started through the change yet, but I'm not sure. My boobs stay tender a lot of the time like when I was pregnant. I wonder if that could be a hormonal thing?
Question regarding hysterectomy *sm*
I had a hysterectomy exactly one week ago today. How long does it take a person to get their energy level back? All I want to do is sleep. I cannot figure out if I am really this tired or if I am looking for an excuse to be lazy. I am not taking any medication right now although my doctor did give me a prescription for Premarin that I have not filled yet.
I had a hysterectomy last March. It took me about 3 weeks actually to
want to be out of bed or off the couch. Even then I took long breaks and rested. One friend took 12 weeks before she ever went back to work part-time. It's different for each person. Just give yourself time. You need to heal and that means that your body needs to rest.

Enjoy!
What I SAID was, "...there is NO WAY that can't have any affect...," and I ...
stand by that. Sure, an MT under the influence may get it right, but I certainly would never want to take a chance on that.
It's all about resposibility and realizing the critical nature of medical transcription. As an MTSO, I would not want an MT drinking while working. Period.
If I hired someone and found out they drank while working, they would be out the door.
it would be affect as in...
Rheumatic fever can affect the heart.
Your sentence would be:
Further bleeding, Per Dr. ___, will affect a hyerectomy.
affect v. effect
Effect is noun in the instance noted. Affect is a verb most of the time. Anything else?
Affect/effect
Affect can be a noun in psych - patient having a "flat affect" - no expression. Effect usually is used as an action word and in this case it is effecting a response or a cause.
effect or affect?
Here is a rule of thumb my boss taught me:
Affect - (a verb) "to change or alter".
Effect - ( a noun) "a result".
You will very rarely use "affect" in the context of a sentence, but it will come into play every once in a while.
what makes you think it will affect us?
affect/effect
Affect can also be a noun, as in "patient's affect", effect can also be a verb as in "to effect a result".
your affect has an effect.
Does this person think that English usage doesn't matter in MT work? Some of the worst medical errors got that way by misuse of plain English words.
Affect/Effect
Effect is not always a noun, and affect is not always a verb. When you "effect" a change, effect becomes a verb. When someone has a flat "affect," affect becomes a noun.
Affect vs. effect
Hopefully this will help, although I guess everything is subject to interpretation:
AFFECT is a verb meaning "to influence" or "to pretend or imitate". EFFECT can be a noun OR a verb. As a noun, it means "result". As a verb it means "to produce a result".
In your particular sentence, it is being used as a verb...so which one to pick?
Without knowing the rest of the record, I would have to go with "effect" because I'm guessing (again..limited knowledge) that the doctor is indicating that if the bleeding doesn't stop, he has to do a hysterectomy. If the hysterectomy has already been done, or it is planned, than surely, further bleeding could "affect" the planned surgery or something that happened during the hysterectomy.
Without more information, it's a crap shoot!... I'm sure that was as clear as mud.

affect/effect
To clarify affect/effect, here is what a friend said:(emphasizing the first syllable and pronouncing it with a "long E"):
"I affect the Effect"
This really helped me.
Mood and affect are normal
EXACTLY - it'll never affect me mentality.
I signed, sent to everyone I know and asked them to send it to everyone they knew. Start believing we can make a difference.
I believe the goings on in the industry affect us as MTs?

It will not affect MT's. I think the limit is 250GB and
the tech people with my company says an MT uses around 2GB/month. Even if that is a conservative figure, still leaves you a lot of GB.
Does anyone know anything about the new EMR system? and how it will affect MT's work? nm
Affect is a verb, Effect is a noun, DUH
